Backlund said yesterday he hoped to be cleared for contact today. He's sporting green today alongside McGrattan and Raymond.

Bob Hartley on when Mikael Backlund could return: “I don’t think he’s far but how close he is, we don’t have a timeline.” #Flames

Raymond in a green jersey and on a line with Backlund and McGrattan likely means he will be scratched in favour of Jooris for tomorrow's game against Edmonton

Also in green: Brian McGrattan and Mason Raymond. Scratch city seems likely for Raymond and Jooris to return

Mason Raymond on his play since returning from injury: "I’m not really playing (to) where I want to be. It’s as simple as that.” #Flames
Aaron Vickers @AAVickers
Raymond (cont): “I’ve been through this many times and have found ways out and I will find a way out in this situation as well.” #Flames
